Be Angry!

"You will not be punished for your anger, you will be punished by your anger."
- Buddha

This reminds me of another saying... Resentment (or anger?) is like swallowing poison to kill your enemy.

Anger isn't an unhealthy emotion.  So many on the path to enlightenment or who are working with the "Law of Attraction" fear being angry, worried that they will simply bring more negativity to themselves.  This is just untrue.

Now, don't get me wrong, if you skulk around all the time, pissed off at the world, then yes, you're going to attract negativity to you.  In a case such as this, anger is less an emotion and more a state of mind.

Anger as an emotion is not only harmless to your conscious creation, but sometimes essential.  Anger ignites fire within us.  Anger sets us in motion.  When anger doesn't set us in motion, then it becomes a state of mind.  When you're overcome with such a strong emotion, you need to act.

The Universe will not "punish" you for feeling anger... for being passionate enough about something to feel angry at the state of things.  But if you do nothing, and just hold onto that anger, the anger itself will punish you through the all consuming thoughts and feelings you will end up if you don't release it.

So BE angry!  If you see injustice, get pissed!  Ignite change!  Create passion!  Just remember that anger is the beginning.  When anger is the end, then you are punishing yourself.
